When a South Korean player held up a political sign about his country's territorial dispute with Japan at the 2012 Olympics, FIFA decided to suspend him for two matches.
Will FIFA punish the Argentine players who waved a political banner after their match against England?
For over 9 years,
I have received more love and support than I could ever deserve.
To all my teammates and staff
who worked and suffered alongside me throughout my career,
and to my one and only team who always showed unwavering belief in me—
thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Though we won't see each other for a little while,
I will cherish these precious memories deep in my heart.
I will look forward to the day I stand before you all again,
whether as 'Carpe' or simply as 'Jae-hyeok Lee.'
To all the fans who have cheered for me until now,
thank you so much.
A Fifa proibiu camisa da independência do Haiti.
Aceitou os EUA barrar árbitro da Somália.
Acatou os EUA impedir torcedor da RD Congo.
Ignorou o Irã ser banido dos EUA a cada jogo.
E, agora, cancela cartão vermelho a pedido de Trump.
Não é Copa - é recreio do imperialismo.
